Ever lost desire to listen to your system because


I recently had an SACD player in my system for about 4 weeks. It was an improvement over my CD player in terms of transparency and musicality. It developed a small buzz in the transport so I took it back. Since I've returned the SACD player, I've basically lost the desire to listen to my system. The "magic" is gone because I've heard the system sound much better that it does now. Anyone ever had similar situations? How did you (or how do you plan to) recover from the trauma? My plan is to buy the SACD player again. Just waiting on some money.

I went through a similar situation. I bought a piece that truly took one of my systems to a new level. I was in love all over again. Then a nagging problem came up that was traceable to my "new love". I did everything that i could to correct it, but it just wouldn't go away. I ended up returning my "new love" to the manufacturer as the problem was annoying.

Obviously, i had to go back to what i was using before. I had used the original component for quite some time and had been quite happy with it overall. Only problem was that i had tasted steak and no longer wanted what seemed like "spam" now. I did not use that system near as much as i had previous to that due to the constant reminder that i had taken a step BACKWARDS.

In the long run, i missed that piece so much that i ended up buying another one. While it did have the same problem as the original one, it turns out that it was simply revealing a problem in another component. Once i fixed the other component, the system has run flawlessly and better than ever. As such, i'm glad that i gave that manufacturer and product a second chance. It was well worth it to me. Sean
